About the Citroen C3 2023 boot
The C3 gives you a small supermini boot built for shopping and cabin bags, not long flat-pack. The opening is 34⅝″ wide by 31⅛″ tall, and the floor runs just 26⅜″ deep with the seats up. Fold the rear bench and it stretches to 53½″, a useful gain of 27⅛″, though the floor stays narrow at 37¾″. Tall or short boxes are fine; anything long fights the short floor. Note the high 30¾″ sill with a 9″ drop to the floor, so you lift up and over, then down into the well.
About the ALEX Desk, white, 52x22 7/8 " package
The ALEX desk ships as one flat, rigid carton at 53¾″ by 26¾″ and only 3¼″ thick. The thinness helps, but two things make it awkward: the 53¾″ length and the 81 lb 2 oz weight in a single box you cannot split. It lies flat and low, so a hatchback with the rear seats folded, an estate or an SUV takes it easily, while a short saloon boot fights the length. Slide it in flat rather than upright, get a second person for the lift, and pad the leading corners against the boot lip.
